Every production line curing UV adhesives or coatings eventually hits the same fork: stay inside a controlled-environment chamber, or move to open-floor, conveyor, or fixture-mounted equipment. In the L-Series™, that fork has a specific model number attached to it. The First Model Beyond the C-Series™ Chamber Envelope The Incure L64 is a 6″ × 4″ UV LED flood curing lamp built on a 216-LED array, and it's the first model in the Incure L-Series™ that exceeds what any current Incure C-Series™ chamber can accommodate — including the C191C, the largest chamber in the range. Where the L44 below it is the ceiling for chamber-compatible curing, the L64 is designed from the outset as a standalone flood source: mounted on a bench fixture, integrated into a conveyor line, or set up on a custom production jig, rather than housed inside an enclosure. 50% More Area Than the L44 at the Same Peak Output The L64 delivers 24 sq. in. of coverage — 50% more than the L44's 16 sq. in. — at the same 1,900 mW/cm² peak intensity class the L88 and L1010 also use (385/395/405 nm), stepping down from the L44's 3,100 mW/cm² as the array spreads across a substantially wider zone. Applications that outgrew the 4-inch chamber-based workflow move to the L64 without needing to reduce their curing area to fit an enclosure — the trade is chamber protection for open-floor flexibility, not a reduction in coverage. A Non-Square Footprint Built for PCB Panel and SMT Formats Unlike every smaller L-Series™ model, the L64's 6″ × 4″ irradiation zone is rectangular, not square. PCB panels, multi-row SMT assemblies, and rectangular adhesive patterns frequently fit a 6-by-4 envelope more naturally than a square array of equivalent area — the L64's footprint aligns with these common production geometries directly, covering the full work area in one pass without the lateral waste a square array of the same coverage would introduce on a narrow panel. 1,900 mW/cm² From a 216-LED Array Peak irradiance at a 2-inch working distance is 1,900 mW/cm² at 385, 395, or 405 nm, and 1,600 mW/cm² at 365 nm. Static uniformity holds at 0.78 at 2.0 inches. The control interface carries the same LCD front panel, foot-switch input, and PLC digital I/O as every smaller L-Series™ model — but unlike the L44 and below, the L64 has no C-Series™ chamber pairing option; it's built for open installation from the outset. Physical Mounting for Standalone Operation Because the L64 has no chamber housing to sit inside, fixture engineering has to handle what the chamber would otherwise provide — a stable mount, defined working distance, and some form of stray-UV containment around the beam path. Custom production jigs built for the L64 typically incorporate a bracket or slide mechanism holding the lamp at a fixed 1-to-3-inch working distance above the part, along with localized shielding rather than a full enclosure, since a full chamber isn't an option at this footprint. Planning that mounting hardware as part of the initial L64…

Choosing a flood lamp for chamber-based curing means checking two numbers, not one: does it fit the chamber, and does it use the fixed cure time efficiently. The Incure L44 is the largest model in the L-Series™ that still answers yes to the first question. 78% More Area Than the L33, Same Chamber Compatibility The Incure L44 is a 4″ × 4″ UV LED flood curing lamp built on a 144-LED array, delivering 16 sq. in. of coverage against the Incure L33's 9 sq. in. — a 78% increase in curing area at the same 3,100 mW/cm² peak intensity (385/395/405 nm) as the L33. Just as importantly, the L44 retains compatibility with the Incure C131C, C131D, and C141C compact cure chambers — the same enclosures used by the L11, L22, and L33. The next model up, the L64, has no chamber-compatible option in the current C-Series™ range; the L44 is the ceiling for anyone who needs both a larger flood zone and a controlled-environment enclosure. Maximizing Throughput Inside a Fixed Cure Window In a timed batch process running inside a C-Series™ chamber, cure time is set by the adhesive or coating chemistry, not by the lamp's footprint — the chamber cycle runs for however long the material needs, regardless of how much area the lamp covers within that window. The L44 fills that fixed time window with the widest irradiation zone that still fits the chamber, curing more assembly area per cycle than the L11, L22, or L33 in the same batch time. For processes running multiple cure cycles per hour inside a chamber, the larger footprint directly reduces the number of repositioning steps needed per batch — more parts per fixture load, same cycle time per load. 3,100 mW/cm² Across a 4″ × 4″ Area Peak irradiance at a 2-inch working distance is 3,100 mW/cm² at 385, 395, or 405 nm, and 2,600 mW/cm² at 365 nm, from the 144-LED array — intensity held steady from the L33 despite the larger footprint. Static uniformity holds at 0.78 at 2.0 inches. The control set carries forward unchanged: LCD front panel, foot-switch input, and PLC digital I/O, with timer and continuous operating modes switchable at the panel. Chamber vs. Open-Floor: Where the Decision Actually Sits The L44/L64 boundary is the single most consequential sizing decision in the L-Series™ for anyone running chamber-based curing, because it's not a gradual trade-off — it's a hard cutoff. If a process needs more than 16 sq. in. of coverage, the Incure C-Series™ cure chambers stop being an option at all, and the process moves to open-floor or fixture-mounted curing with the L64 or larger. That's worth confirming before designing a fixture around chamber-based cure at a size close to the L44's ceiling — a process that might grow slightly in the future is safer starting on open-floor equipment than committing to a chamber it will outgrow. Fixture Loading Density Inside a Chamber Because the L44 delivers the widest chamber-compatible curing zone in the L-Series™, it's…

Conformal coating sections and perimeter gasket rings have an awkward habit of landing right in the 2-to-3-inch range — too wide for a compact spot lamp, too specific a shape for a large square flood array to cover efficiently. The Incure L33 is sized for exactly that middle zone. 2.25× the Curing Area of the L22, Same Intensity Class The Incure L33 is a 3″ × 3″ UV LED flood curing lamp built on an 81-LED array, expanding from the Incure L22's 4 sq. in. to 9 sq. in. — a 2.25× increase in coverage at 3,100 mW/cm² peak output (385/395/405 nm), down modestly from the L22's 4,300 mW/cm² as the array spreads across the larger zone. Assemblies spanning 3 inches in one or both dimensions no longer need two passes with the L22 or a repositioning jig between exposures — the L33 covers the full section in one trigger cycle. One Cycle for Coating Sections and Gasket Rings the L22 Can't Reach Whole Conformal coating sections, dome coating areas, and perimeter gasket rings frequently span the 2-to-3-inch range in at least one dimension. Covering that geometry with the L22 means either two overlapping exposures or a fixture that repositions the part mid-cycle — both introduce a seam where UV dose either doubles or drops below the intended level. The L33 covers the full zone in a single, consistent exposure, which matters specifically for coating and gasket applications where an under-cured seam becomes a moisture-ingress or leak path rather than just a cosmetic defect. 3,100 mW/cm² Across a 3″ × 3″ Area Peak irradiance at a 2-inch working distance is 3,100 mW/cm² at 385, 395, or 405 nm, and 2,600 mW/cm² at 365 nm, from the 81-LED array. Static uniformity holds at 0.78 at 2.0 inches. Like the L11 and L22, the L33 is dimensionally matched to the Incure C131C, C131D, and C141C compact cure chambers, and carries the same LCD front panel, foot-switch, and PLC digital I/O control set. Repositioning Cost Versus a Larger Single-Pass Lamp The real cost of running a coating or gasket section slightly larger than the L22 covers isn't just the second exposure cycle — it's the fixture engineering needed to reposition the part precisely enough that the two passes overlap without a gap and without excessive double-dosing at the seam. That fixture complexity, and the process validation required to confirm the overlap zone cures correctly, is often a larger practical cost than the price difference between the L22 and the L33. Sizing directly to the L33 when a section regularly exceeds 2 inches in either dimension usually pays for itself in reduced fixture and validation effort alone. Matching the L33 to Coating Cure-Path Requirements For UV conformal coating passes at this scale, cure completeness through the full film thickness — not just surface tack-free time — is the metric that determines whether the L33's 3,100 mW/cm² and standard exposure time are sufficient. The Incure Ultra-Illumina™ UV conformal coatings line documents grade-specific coverage and cure-path…

Scaling up a UV flood lamp usually means accepting a lower peak intensity across the wider zone — except at the smallest step in the L-Series™, where that trade-off doesn't apply yet. 4× the Curing Area of the L11, Same 4,300 mW/cm² The Incure L22 is a 2″ × 2″ UV LED flood curing lamp built on a 36-LED array, delivering four times the curing area of the Incure L11 at an identical 4,300 mW/cm² peak output at 385, 395, or 405 nm. That intensity parity is the point: an engineer moving from a single-joint L11 setup to a multi-joint L22 setup does not need to re-qualify cure time. Same adhesive, same irradiance, a larger zone — the process window that was validated on the L11 carries over directly. Four Bond Points in One Trigger Cycle A 2″ × 2″ flood covers four 1-inch bond points simultaneously. What the L11 handles as four sequential placements — trigger, reposition, trigger, reposition — the L22 handles in a single cycle. On assemblies with multiple closely spaced adhesive joints, such as sensor mounts, PCB stiffener bonds, or multi-point optical assemblies, that difference compounds directly into tact time: fewer cure cycles per part means fewer operator touches and shorter total process time per unit, without any change to the per-joint UV dose. 4,300 mW/cm² Across a 2″ × 2″ Area Peak irradiance at a 2-inch working distance is 4,300 mW/cm² at 385, 395, or 405 nm, and 3,600 mW/cm² at 365 nm, from the 36-LED array. Static uniformity holds at 0.78 at 2.0 inches. Like the L11, the L22 is dimensionally matched to the Incure C131C, C131D, and C141C compact cure chambers, and shares the same LCD front panel, foot-switch input, and PLC digital I/O control set — timer and continuous modes switch from the front panel without reconfiguration. Choosing L22 Over L11 or L33 The decision among the smallest three L-Series™ models is purely a footprint question, not an intensity trade-off, since the L11 and L22 share identical peak output. Count the actual bond points on the assembly and their spacing: a single joint calls for the L11; a cluster of joints fitting inside a 2-inch square calls for the L22; a wider pattern spanning 3 inches moves to the L33, where intensity does begin to shift (3,100 mW/cm² rather than 4,300). Sizing to actual joint geometry avoids over-irradiating surrounding board area unnecessarily. Wavelength Ordering and Cross-Joint Consistency Because the L22's wavelength is set once at order across all four bond points it covers in a cycle, every joint under the array needs to share compatible photoinitiator chemistry with that single factory-configured wavelength — 365, 385, 395, or 405 nm. On a multi-joint assembly using more than one adhesive product across its four bond points, confirming all of them respond to the same wavelength before finalizing the L22's order avoids a scenario where one joint cures reliably while an adjacent joint, on a different formulation, cures only partially under the identical exposure. Matching…

Every step up in flood lamp area comes with a physics constraint most spec sheets don't spell out: spread the same LED technology across a wider array, and peak irradiance per square inch has to give somewhere. The Incure L1414 is the point in the L-Series™ where that trade-off becomes worth understanding before ordering. 196 Square Inches — The Largest Single-Exposure Zone in the Line The Incure L1414 is a 14″ × 14″ UV LED flood curing lamp built on a 1,764-LED array, covering 196 sq. in. in one exposure — 44% more area than the L1212's 144 sq. in., and the largest irradiation zone available in the Incure L-Series™. RS232 serial control, C191C chamber compatibility, and the LCD/foot-switch/PLC control set carry forward unchanged from the L1212 — the step up is a lamp swap on identical infrastructure, not a re-integration project. Where the Trade-Off Shows Up: 950 mW/cm² Instead of 1,900 Peak irradiance at a 2-inch working distance is 950 mW/cm² at 385, 395, or 405 nm, and 800 mW/cm² at 365 nm — roughly half the L1212's output at the same wavelengths. This is a direct consequence of spreading total LED power across a larger array rather than a defect in the L1414 itself: at 196 sq. in., the L1414 still delivers more total UV power to an assembly per cycle than any smaller L-Series™ model, but that power is distributed more thinly per unit area. For UV-curable adhesives and conformal coatings with fast-responding photoinitiators, 950 mW/cm² is generally sufficient at standard exposure times; for cure chemistry with a slower-responding initiator system, exposure time needs to extend accordingly, or working distance needs to shorten within the 1-to-3-inch recommended range. Eliminating Multi-Pass Repositioning on Large-Format Assemblies 14″ × 14″ covers large-format PCB panels, industrial substrate trays, and multi-row SMT assemblies in one uninterrupted exposure — no partial-area overlaps, no seam-line dose variation, no fixture repositioning step between passes. For assemblies spanning the 12-to-14-inch range that would otherwise require two L1212 exposures, the L1414 removes both the extra cycle and the dose-consistency risk that comes with stitching two passes together at a seam. When the L1414's Intensity Isn't Enough If a large-format process needs both the L1414's footprint and intensity closer to what a smaller lamp delivers, the answer isn't a bigger air-cooled array — it's water cooling. The Incure W-Series™ sustains higher intensity at a given array size than air-cooled L-Series™ models by continuously removing heat from the LED junction rather than relying on forced-air convection alone, which is why the W1212 delivers 3,100 mW/cm² at 365 nm — roughly double the L1414's equivalent-scale performance — across a smaller 12″ × 12″ footprint. Reviewing thermal throttling behavior against actual shift-length duty cycle is worth doing before committing to an air-cooled array at this size for high-volume, cure-rate-critical production. Email Us with the target intensity and duty cycle for a side-by-side comparison. Exposure Time as the Primary Lever at This Scale Because peak irradiance at the L1414's footprint is roughly…

Twelve-inch square is a standard substrate dimension across mid-volume and high-volume electronics and power device manufacturing — and it's exactly the point where a 10-inch flood lamp starts running two-pass workflows instead of one clean exposure. 44% More Curing Area Than the L1010, Same Control Platform The Incure L1212 is a 12″ × 12″ UV LED flood curing lamp built on a 1,296-LED array, delivering 144 sq. in. of coverage against the L1010's 100 sq. in. — a 44% increase in curing area with no change to the control architecture. RS232 serial control, C191C chamber compatibility, the LCD front panel, foot-switch input, and PLC digital I/O all carry forward from the L1010 unchanged. The upgrade path between the two models is a lamp swap: no rewiring, no reconfiguring the automation layer, no re-qualifying the host trigger sequence. Within the Incure L-Series™ lineup, the L1212 is the direct next step for any process that has outgrown a 10-inch flood zone. One Pass, Full Panel 12″ × 12″ matches the full-panel format used in mid- and high-volume PCB production, power module assembly, and large-format conformal coating work. A single uninterrupted L1212 exposure eliminates the two-pass overlap pattern that shows up when an L1010 is pushed to cover panels extending into the 10-to-12-inch range — overlap zones receive a double UV dose, while gaps between passes can leave a strip under-cured. Neither failure mode is acceptable on production panels carrying active circuitry, and both disappear once the lamp footprint matches the panel outright. 1,900 mW/cm² Across the Full 12-Inch Zone Peak irradiance at a 2-inch working distance reaches 1,900 mW/cm² at 385, 395, or 405 nm, and 1,600 mW/cm² at 365 nm — intensity held constant from the L1010 despite the larger array, since the 1,296-LED count scales proportionally with the added area. Static uniformity is 0.78 at 2.0 inches. Wavelength is factory-configured at order (365, 385, 395, or 405 nm), and LED life is rated above 20,000 hours with no recalibration expected across normal service life. The L1212 pairs with the Incure C191C cure chamber, the same enclosure used for the L1010 and L88 — a light-tight, controlled-environment housing sized for production-scale batch curing rather than open-bench work. Physical Installation and Power Requirements The L1212 runs on the same auto-ranging 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz power input as the rest of the mid-to-large L-Series™ models, with forced-air louvered cooling. At this footprint, the lamp is sized for bench, chamber, or fixed-station installation rather than a hand-held or highly mobile setup — planning adequate airflow clearance around the housing and confirming the C191C chamber's internal dimensions against the lamp body (not just the 12″ × 12″ irradiation zone) are both worth doing at the fixture-design stage rather than after the equipment ships. Sizing Against Panel-Level Adhesive and Coating Chemistry A 12-inch flood zone typically cures either discrete adhesive joints across a full panel or a continuous conformal coating layer. For structural or component-mounting adhesive across the panel, review viscosity-to-joint-design fit in the Incure Uni-Weld™…

A wide UV flood array over a densely packed board doesn't just cure the bond line — it irradiates every neighboring component it can reach, whether or not that component is rated for UV exposure. On boards where the cure zone is a single bond pad surrounded by heat-sensitive optics or thin-film sensors, that's a real defect risk, not a theoretical one. The Smallest Array in the L-Series™ — By Design The Incure L11 is a 1″ × 1″ UV LED flood curing lamp built on a 9-LED array, and it's the smallest-footprint model in the Incure L-Series™ lineup. Where larger L-Series™ models cover areas from 4× to nearly 200× as wide, the L11 keeps UV output confined to a 1-inch square — roughly the footprint of a single bond pad, sensor mount, or optical component. That containment does the job an aperture mask or supplementary shielding would otherwise have to do on a wider lamp: it limits the irradiated zone to exactly where the cure needs to happen. Matched to the C-Series™ Compact Chambers The L11 is dimensionally matched to the Incure C131C, C131D, and C141C cure chambers — mounting the lamp into one of these fills the chamber window without dead zones around the edges. Timer mode and continuous mode switch from the front panel, and the same lamp runs manual bench workstations (via the foot-switch input) or fully automated fixtures (via PLC digital I/O) without reconfiguration between the two. For labs that run both prototype and production curing off the same equipment, that flexibility avoids maintaining two separate lamp setups. 4,300 mW/cm² From a 9-LED Array Peak irradiance at a 2-inch working distance is 4,300 mW/cm² at 385, 395, or 405 nm, and 3,600 mW/cm² at 365 nm — matching the output of the next model up, the L22, despite the L11's much smaller footprint. Static uniformity holds at 0.78 at 2.0 inches. Wavelength is factory-configured at order across the same four options, and LED life is rated above 20,000 hours with no bulb replacement expected during normal service. That intensity parity with the L22 is a deliberate design point: choosing the L11 over the L22 is purely a footprint decision, not an intensity trade-off. An engineer selecting between the two should size the lamp to the actual bond geometry — a single joint calls for the L11; four joints in a 2-inch cluster calls for the L22 — without needing to re-qualify cure time when moving between them. Wavelength Configuration and Order Planning Like every model in the L-Series™, the L11's wavelength is set at the factory when the unit is ordered — 365, 385, 395, or 405 nm — rather than being field-switchable after delivery. That makes confirming the target adhesive's peak absorption wavelength before placing an order a necessary step, not an optional check; a unit configured for 405 nm won't deliver useful cure performance against a photoinitiator system tuned for 365 nm, regardless of how much intensity the array otherwise produces. The ordering…

When a PCB panel or substrate tray finally outgrows an 8-inch flood zone, the choice isn't between more intensity and more area — it's whether the next lamp up forces a rewrite of the automation layer. The Incure L1010 answers that with a flat no. Scaling Past the 8-Inch Boundary Without Touching the Control Architecture The L1010 is a 10″ × 10″ UV LED flood curing lamp built on a 900-LED array, delivering 56% more curing area than the L-Series™ L88 (100 sq. in. versus 64 sq. in.) while keeping every control interface identical. RS232 serial control for host-driven automation, the LCD front panel, foot-switch input, and PLC digital I/O all carry over unchanged from the L88. A line that outgrows the L88's 8-inch envelope moves to the L1010 as a lamp swap, not an integration project — no rewiring, no re-qualifying the trigger sequence, no new firmware on the host side. One Exposure, the Whole 10-Inch Panel Ten-inch square is a common PCB panel and substrate tray format across electronics manufacturing, and the L1010 covers it in a single uninterrupted exposure. That matters more than it sounds: any lamp smaller than the assembly forces either a two-pass workflow with an overlap zone, or a repositioning step between exposures. Both introduce dose variation at the seam — a region that receives either double the intended UV energy or a gap where cure is incomplete. Panel-level conformal coating cure and multi-joint adhesive cure both benefit from eliminating that seam entirely, since a partial-cure line running through active circuitry is a defect a two-pass process can silently introduce. For engineers evaluating equipment against an existing Incure L-Series™ deployment, the L1010 sits directly above the L88 in the lineup — same control philosophy, larger footprint. 1,900 mW/cm² Across the Full Zone, Chamber-Matched Peak irradiance at a 2-inch working distance reaches 1,900 mW/cm² at 385, 395, or 405 nm, and 1,600 mW/cm² at 365 nm, from the 900-LED array. Static uniformity holds at 0.78 across the full 10″ × 10″ zone at 2.0 inches — a figure that matters more at this scale than on a small spot lamp, since a wide array with poor edge uniformity under-cures the panel perimeter relative to its center. Wavelength is factory-configured at order (365, 385, 395, or 405 nm), and LED life is rated above 20,000 hours with no recalibration or bulb replacement expected across normal service life. The L1010 pairs with the Incure C191C cure chamber — the only chamber in the C-Series™ range sized for L88-and-larger flood lamps. For processes that need a light-tight, controlled-atmosphere enclosure around a production-scale cure zone rather than an open-bench setup, the C191C brings that without shrinking the L1010's working area. For teams weighing whether a 10-inch flood lamp fits a broader coating process — where the lamp is curing a UV conformal coating layer rather than discrete adhesive joints — cure chemistry compatibility is worth checking against the applied film thickness and photoinitiator system; see the Incure Ultra-Illumina™ UV…

A panel-level assembly that's larger than the lamp above it doesn't just take longer to cure — it takes multiple repositioned exposures, and each reposition is another opportunity for an uncured gap at the overlap line. Four Times the Curing Area of the F200P in a Single Pass The Incure F900P is a large-area programmable UV arc flood curing lamp covering a 16″×12″ area — four times the F200P's 8″×6″ footprint — in a single, uninterrupted pass, at the same 350 mW/cm² intensity and the same programmable dose control as the F200P. For panel-level assembly, multi-board fixturing, or large-format bonding where the F200P would need multiple passes or repositioning to cover the full area, the F900P removes those steps entirely. It requires 200–240 VAC only and is compatible with the Incure B201 UV cure chamber. 192 Square Inches — What the F200P Cannot Cover in One Pass 192 square inches in a single exposure is four times the 48 square inches the F200P covers. That eliminates the multiple repositioning steps otherwise required when curing large panels, multi-board fixtures, or wide-format bond lines with a compact flood lamp. The 16″×12″ aperture fits standard EMS panel dimensions directly, reducing panel-level cure time from several partial exposures down to a single trigger cycle. Confirming whether a panel or fixture actually needs the F900P's full-area coverage, versus repositioning a smaller lamp, is worth checking before ordering. Email Us with the panel dimensions and Incure can confirm the right fit. Fully Programmable for Automated Assembly Lines An LCD display, digital keypad, and fully programmable operation enable automated exposure sequences — dose, interval, and repeat cycles can all be set for line-integrated batch curing rather than a single manual trigger. The integrated retractable shade shutter keeps all four lamps continuously lit between cycles, removing the warm-up delay a cold-started arc lamp would otherwise introduce between parts. 2,400W Across a 16″×12″ Area at 350 mW/cm² Four individually replaceable 600W metal halide arc lamps deliver 2,400W total arc power — broadband UVA (315–400 nm), UVB (280–315 nm), and visible output to 420 nm — at 350 mW/cm² across the full 16″×12″ area at 2.0-inch working distance, 175 mW/cm² at 3.0 inches. Lamp life is rated at roughly 2,000 hours per bulb, and because each of the four lamps is individually replaceable, end-of-life maintenance is done one bulb at a time rather than as a full-unit replacement. Physical and Electrical Specifications The F900P weighs 26.6 lb at 17.45″×23″×7.75″, forced-air cooled. Unlike the smaller F-Series™ models, the F900P requires 200–240 VAC supply only — it is not auto-ranging, which is worth confirming against available facility power before installation. The Only Chamber Sized for This Lamp The F900P's 16″×12″ curing area exceeds what the standard B500 chamber can accommodate — only the Incure B/C-Series™ UV Cure Chambers line's B201 model, with its 12.5″×22.0″×16.4″ interior, is built around this lamp's footprint. For fully enclosed, shielded batch curing of large assemblies, the B201 is the pairing to specify. Where the F900P Sits in…

When reflector flexibility isn't the requirement and raw output is, trading the F400's optional focused beam for a straight intensity increase in the same handheld form is the more direct fix. Maximum Output in the Portable Handheld Form Factor The Incure F500 is a portable, high-intensity UV arc flood curing lamp delivering 590 mW/cm² UVA — 20% more than the F400 — in the same portable handheld form factor, from a 600W metal halide lamp against the F400's 400W. The F400 offers an optional focused reflector for narrow bond lines; the F500 trades that flexibility for maximum output across the full 5″×5″ parabolic beam instead. When cure time is the bottleneck and the standard flood geometry already fits the joint, the F500 is the highest-output portable in the F-Series™. 20% More Intensity in an Identical Handheld The F400 delivers 490 mW/cm² at 2.0 inches from its 400W lamp; the F500 delivers 590 mW/cm² from a 600W lamp in an identical portable housing. At the same working distance, that roughly 100 mW/cm² difference translates directly into shorter required exposure time for a given UV dose — with no fixture change and no new process qualification beyond re-timing the exposure. Confirming whether output or reflector flexibility matters more for a given handheld application is worth checking before choosing between the F400 and F500. Email Us with the process details and Incure can help confirm the right fit. Shorter Cure Cycles on the Production Floor UV dose is intensity multiplied by time, so a 20% higher output translates to a proportionally shorter exposure time for the same delivered dose. Production environments where operators hand-cure at pace — potting fills, edge seals, fixture bonding — finish faster per part as a direct result. The F500 is built for lines where throughput, not reflector geometry, is the actual bottleneck. 590 mW/cm² UVA at 2.0 Inches The 600W metal halide arc lamp delivers broadband UVA (315–400 nm), UVB (280–315 nm), and visible output to 420 nm — 590 mW/cm² at 2.0-inch working distance, 270 mW/cm² at 3.0 inches, across the full 5″×5″ parabolic curing area. Lamp life is rated at roughly 2,000 hours, forced-air cooled, auto-ranging 100–120/200–240 VAC input for domestic and international use. The removable, self-contained handheld lamp head weighs 3.15 lb. No Focused-Reflector Option — a Deliberate Tradeoff Unlike the F400, the F500 doesn't offer a focused-reflector accessory — its parabolic reflector is the only configuration available. For processes that need a narrower, higher-irradiance beam to avoid over-exposing adjacent components, the F400's optional focused reflector fills that gap instead. The F500's design commits fully to maximum flood output rather than splitting the difference between output and beam-geometry flexibility.
